Hummingbird Hammocks Ultralight Single+ Hammock: Lightweight, Durable, and Comfortable Outdoor Relaxation

BeardedTNhiker: These are my favorite ultralight hammocks. I have the single and the single+. They are strong, light, and easy to use. As long as you keep them dry and away from anything sharp, they will last for years.

Richard: This hammock is ridiculously lightweight and stuffs into a teeny tiny stuff sack, but it deploys out to become a very comfortable size. I'm 6'3" and about 300lbs. and this hammock felt roomy. I was skeptical about the button style connectors, but once I saw them in person they made a lot more sense. I used hummingbird hammocks tree straps to hang this, and everything felt very secure.

BletchleyPark1939: As an owner of several hammocks, including the Sea to Summit Pro Hammock, I found the Hummingbird's Ultralight Double hammock to be the best in the areas of:

1) Lightweight (lighter than Sea to Summit's hammock)
2) Ease of setup and adaptability to different "tree configurations"

The button-based hardware is, in my opinion, what sets this product apart. While Sea to Summit will claim to be the "world's lightest hammock", which is true for the hammock ITSELF ONLY. Once you add the suspension hardware, Sea to Summit's hammock is actually heavier and not as adaptable as that of Hummingbird's.

Please note that Amazon carries other camping hammocks that will be more comfortable than this Hummingbird hammock as they will be wider and longer; however, a backpacker is always willing to compromise some comfort to shave off weight. I have used this hammock on five trips thus far and slept overnight restfully each time. I have a 10 degree bag which is suitable for the 40 degree lows here in the California Sierras during late spring and summer (the hammock is completely uninstalled).

Amazon Customer: I was skeptical at first and was a bit skittish after reading the review and comments from Justin G. and Laurent. Sure enough, my first hang and I split the bottom right out of it. I shot an email off to Hummingbird and got an immediate response. My replacement hammock arrived just 2 days later. Still skeptical, I brought along a sturdy spare to the woods and I paid very careful attention to my hangs and used a fixed ridgeline. The most comfortable 4 nights in the Sierra Mountains I've ever experienced. I want to say I'm an experienced hammock guy, but after trudging through the big tree's of northern California, I'd forgotten a few things. I believe the problem I experienced (and judging from Justin G.'s photo his also) is simply a matter of a bad hang angle. My first one that I split was very difficult and stretched the thing out to make it work. I probably had less than a 15 degree hang. Just now, I used the hammock hang calculator at theultimatehang.com and by guessing the distances I used as best I could, it came up to well over 500 lbs of lateral force on the cords, which I'm sure is transferred to hammock under my butt. I believe I literally...

Amazon Customer: When my hammock arrived I was a little sad because the carabiners seemed to be falling apart a little and even though they worked I was worried about the longevity.
I emailed Hummingbird Hammocks and they replied within the hour with the most impressive email I've ever received from a company.
The person who talked to me said they stand behind their product and take great pride in what they make and that I must've gotten a defective part which can happen though very rare.
They sent me out a new hammock with a new carabiner which arrived in 2 days and told me to keep the old hammock as a sign of their apology. On top of that they gave me an extra pair of carabiners. Not to mention they gave me the newer technology carabiners which are much easier to use.
They also sent me a Sticker haha :D

PROS:
- The hammock is easier to set up with the adjustable Tree Straps (I highly suggest getting these they are awesome) than my friends ENO's.
- It weighs a fraction of other hammocks of the same size.
- Is so small when packed it fits in my back pocket.
- It's beautiful, since the material is so light, the sun light shed through it giving it...
